  1. Gasum supplies liquefied biogas to Equinor

Gasum has started supplying bio-LNG to Equinor’s tugs Borgøy and Bokn , an important step in their ongoing collaboration to drive the energy transition in the maritime sector. The first bunkering of liquefied biogas for the tug Borgøy was successfully completed on 14 February in the port of Kårstø, Norway.

Bio-LNG, a fully renewable fuel, is playing a crucial role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the maritime sector, which are on average 90% lower than those of traditional fossil fuels. This supply is part of Equinor’s efforts to achieve its goal of becoming a carbon-neutral energy company by 2050 .

This agreement follows Gasum’s 2024 supply of bio-LNG to the Island Crusader, a platform supply vessel used by Equinor. Expanding the use of this renewable biofuel as a preferred option for tugs is an important step on the path towards Equinor’s sustainability goals.
